C., Jan. 30.—For lie fourth successive year Montreal annotnces Ite eupremacy as the greatest wheat exporting city in No. America. So great is the yellow flow through Montreal, that Its ship- ments abroad excceded the combined exports of its seven chief rivals in the United States: New York, Galve- ston, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Norfolk and Boston, up to September of last year. “The staff of life has been a magic wand for the Canadian metropolis™ says a bulletin of the National Geo- graphic Soeicty from its headquar- ters at Washlngton, D.

Yet there may be a hundred more bins in this honeycomb called a grain elevator. Could he still stand the strain he might watch wheat drop into the hold of a liner in about 12 minutes. Wheat must move the bottle and fae vet when ice corks the neck betweea December and May and so Montreal is capital of wheat—and of agrarian humility.” SHUNS Sllll(Ol'\l'l\‘G\ Japanese Prince to Live on College | Premises at Oxford. | Tokio, Jan. 30.—Prince Yasuhito ihu, second son of the emperor, ‘ngland in May for 3 stay of possibly four years.
